All hail the might Hurri Mk1 :D


It sucks in the MA while flying an older plane and you come across another old plane but you can't keep the other bananas from coming into the fight to "help" you out with the uber con (109E4) with their Tempest.  Schatzi and I had a few fights like this a few months ago.  But this arena would help fix that :) Great idea!!

The A6M5 is not "early war", being introduced in mid 1943. Moreover, one could certainly argue that the F4U-1 should be added as it is a 1942 vintage fighter (deliveries beginning in October of 1942).

Frankly, I don't see this happening. Not enough resources and the desire to maintain the back-up arena as a genuine back-up will probably get in the way. Nonetheless, it would be a fun alternative to the current MA.

Also, the FM-2 wasn't early-war, either. 1944, I think.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

I think this is a GREAT idea!
maybe need a lil tweaking and a determination made on what year the cutoff is.
maybe has a couple of midwar era planes as perk rides.

Id love to fly my p40 without worrying about some late war era p51 or 190 comming along and ruining my fun :furious
Crap now I gotta redo my cool sig.....crap!!! I cant remeber how to do it all !!!!!

This sounds very good, and it would be all the more reason to bring sum more early war planes into the game.
